Spartans close in on Big Ten title

IL now moves to 13-16 on the season after losing to the Michigan StateSpartans. In that game, IL forward Leron Black put up 28 points. Because, assuming a necessary win against an #11-14-seed bottom-feeder such as Minnesota or Iowa they would most likely get a beatable quality opponent on Friday in Ohio State or Purdue and not Michigan State, a team nobody wants to face right now.

If the Nittany Lions are able to beat both conference opponents and head into the Big Ten tournament with the two more wins, they should feel somewhat comfortable about making the Big Dance with a reasonable showing in NY.

IL (13-15, 3-12) has won just three of its last 13 games. The Rams purposely fouled Pookie Powell, who made the first free throw and intentionally missed the second.

IL hung tough through the first half, but just didn't have the depth nor firepower to keep up with the Spartans' high-powered attack. The Big 12 had three teams make the top 25, with Texas Tech coming in at No. 6, Kansas at No. 8 and West Virginia at No. 21.

The Spartans wrap up the regular season Sunday at Wisconsin.
